The mistake i made was to conflate primary with general. I think McCain is in far better shape now that he would have been. Perhaps obama could have still beaten hillary without the lunge to the left. The true believers over there praise anything he does. When i started with obama i viewed him as a moderate. Now he is squarely on the left and more to the left than any recent democrat. David Brooks column in todays NYTimes tells it like it is. He will win the nomination but he will be hard pressed to win the general. And if McCain were to temper his iraq beliefs and says he will do an IKE and go to IRAQ to end the war, he could win in a walk. Hell he doesnt even have to follow thru once elected if he conditions changed or he decided to be disingenous.

Market is saying globalization will minimize what would have been disastrous effects of this credit/housing recession. The economy is now global and the losses are shared. For the US exports and trade will pull us out of this funk quicker than i would have imagined. Thats if the market is right now.
